Volunteer
There is goodness in everyone. When it activates and truly comes alive, great things can happen.
The best way we know to bring it out is to volunteer. Whether it’s for an hour, a day, once a week, or once a month, you can create a tremendous impact on another person’s life.
Sign up to volunteer with a United Way NCA-organized project. Or, volunteer with one of our member nonprofit organizations in any of the eight regions we serve.
Whether you have volunteered with United Way NCA in the past or are a new volunteer, please sign up on our new platform here to access and sign up for current volunteer opportunities.
